>GM shakes for a moment, and his head explodes
>>20704
You find the Foreman (he's got a bright safety vest on, its pretty obvious) waiting for you outside and below the Tower. "Hey there. The name's Adam, what'd you wanna see me about?"

>>20705
"Hi Adam. Sorry about the snake scare yesterday.
I wanted to ask about buying some beams for a project."
Torc pulls a page out of his book with plans for a trebuchet on it, and hands it to Adam

>>20705
Uh...

Can I do the waking up next to Slovenia now then?

Wait, are we playing cinematic now?

>>20708
I guess. I was hoping to wait until after my paper was finished

>>20707
That would mean that you didn't have any of that dialogue with Infernius,... so yes.
>>20708
Well, some of you have been doing minor cinematics the whole time, so IMO Trump is just catching up

>>20710
reeeeeeeee

But is her head laying on my leg?

>>20709
Do your paper. I won't have any serious time to commit to anything other than meta questions and minor character directions until Friday night.

>>20712
If Tracy's transformation really is not like a lycanthrope's, should I take those ranks out of Control Shape?

>>20713
On that, at this point I am kind of relegating it as sort of 'going Super Saiyan'. As long as its not excessive (and yes, ethereal/astral shit will be requisitely in nightmare mode) then its fine, but too much will be exhausting to the character.

P.S. since she only tends to do it in combat, it probably won't be a concern

>>20706
"Hmmm. Okkay,... I see. That's gonna be a tall order. We can do it, but the trees we'll need aren't readily available, we used up all the ones we had on those ships that were built. We'd need to mount an expedition to the forest to harvest more, and the forests have started to get a bit nastier than they have been. We'd need at least one of you folks to come along with us."

>>20715
It means she won't be able to go ethereal out of another character's arms

>>20714
Okay. What we're her transformed abilities again? It'd also be nice to know how often she can do it and under what conditions.
I've made a lot of mistakes with my player's class advancements. I don't want to make any more.

>>20717
This. No more "pooof" she's gone, unless she's already on fire and billowing smoke.
>>20718
Pretty much (aside from stats) what's listed for the Cauchemar, including feats and such.

>>20719
That's fine to me.
.. do all the normal horses in this world really have more Wis than Tracy?

Let me give an example. When Thez was still 1/2 pit fiend, she could go haste for a limited duration, but regardless of whether she turned it off or it expired, at the conclusion she would be exhausted (even though she has improved endurance, which otherwise negates exhaustion), and unable to function for a period of time.

>>20720
I don't mind upping Tracy's Wis a point or two, I just put the 9 in Wis cuz I thought it wouldn't matter in the long run.
crumples that thought up and throws it in the now over-flowing bin of "WRONG IDEAS"

>>20721
So... After the guy is dead in a fight is she going to have enough energy to secret off the goods to her jew cave?

>>20723
Forgot to remove pic

>>20723
You do realize that that is a major cause for friction in the party? One sec,....
https://youtu.be/xXy9CTVt99M

Not pointing fingers, just presenting a few points for consideration

>>20716
"Okay, I can go with you to help with transportaion. What time would you be leaving?"

>>20723
I'll leave their clothes 'n shit if it's all important to you, but I'm not about to stop snatching bodies.

>>20728
You are if you're exhausted after the battle

Ask nicely for other people to get it for you

>>20727
"Well, harvesting lumber of this size is a day or more (game time) expedition, and its a loud process so there's almost no chance that we'll be able to manage it without being run up on by something undesirable. I'm afraid that the GM's schedule won't permit it until Friday night at earliest."
>>20728
That's fine, I'm just trying to foster a bit more "Hey, look at all this stuff we got from <dead person>."
I don't think anyone will mind if you run off with the carcass.
Although Thez did kinda want Kefka's wings,... no worries tho.

>>20730
"That'll do"
Actually that works, since I may be able to play late tomorrow, and really late saturday.
Torc thanks Adam and looks for Trollestia

>>20730
>>20731
"I-i could help you torculi."

>>20721
That makes sense: having a larger, stronger body that requires more energy should idealy cause exhaustion/starvation. I actually thought that it was already implied, which is why I cienematically had her collapse after every boss fight.
>>20729
There's no way you actually give a fuck if I skulk off with naked bodies. I gotta fill my dungeon and the bathhouse somehow. I'll take potions if I have to (would her pony-form Endurance feat help?). It would hardly be a dungeon without mummified enemies, would it?
>>20730
Like I said earlier, most of Kefka, aside from parts of his wet innards, are still there. I didn't know he had wings, but does Thez really want them? Did he have any other non-hooman parts worth noting? It's all being prepared for liquidation.

Did I mention how badass Queen Taylor would look in a harlequin hat?

>>20730
Can we import Lumber?

>>20733
Oh I didn't say I wanted the bodies. I just said that if someone who did want the bodies was exhausted she could ask others to bring the stuff back

We do need Kefka's head though

>>20732
Is his name just a joke now?
"If you want to you can come"

>>20732
*offers Kefka's hat*
>>20734
The head is secure. You'll have it when you need it.

>>20731
Sorry about the schedule,... I had many choice words about it, due to the faggot who's unreliability necessitated it and how,... I won't get into it.
>>20733
Well she didn't say anything, and she didn't realize she wanted until her infernal nature was removed. pic related was his transformed form, and she would want the bat wings, but again none of that was mentioned so technically its a meta issue at this point.
>>20735
Kek. Torculi!

>>20737
If she want's a piece of him, she could just ask: it's all in the handbag anyway.
Just what was Kefka anyway? Tracy would've been more interested in his body too, for similar reasons.
>>20738
I already gave it away. Let's say a non-magical hat was in his pocket.

>>20739
Kefka was,... uber magic. I mean he was technically human, but had grown so powerful wrt magic that he was sort of a demi-god. You might not think that because he died to magic, but there's a whole lot of minutiae that led to that. Besides,....

>>20737
No, you missunderstand
Yours works fine. I can do friday night.
So Torc continues oo try an find Trollestia

>>20740
He was clearly possessing weapons of mass destruction, one of which just happened to ignite when Tourcil (Torculi) hit him with the implosion spell. It's the only explaination

>>20738
My first impression of him was pic related. I had assumed he'd be full clown attire if he were showing up to bully some fishermen out of their lunch money.
>>20740
For the sake of liquidation and flaying, what's his anatomy? How many wings? Any properties I'd like to know of? Half the party took a bath in his blood btw too...

>>20742
Yes, yes that is the only explanation. There could be no other.
>>20741
Good to hear. I'm still salty about the douchebag though. motherfucker has the audacity to try and,... when it's READILY and STATISTICALLY obvious that,... all the while trying to,... cuz "MUH,...

>>20738
>>20736
Rip

>>20743
forgot pic

>>20743
>blood bath
Non-consequential
>first impression
That is how he arrived yes, but after getting beaten about for a bit he decided to go Super Saiyan. In doing so, he reverted to the same hubris (which is consistent with his character) that got him beaten about in the first place, leading to his demise

>>20735
Hows it spelled?

>>20748
Torqil

Nyquil

>>20744
okay...

>>20747
No need for the monster killing quest. The rationale for that has passed. I have a different thing I'd like to do

>>20749
>>20750
THIS
H
I
S

>>20747
He still brought the scarves, feather hat, and other clothes though, right? Even if they weren't magical, it's cool to keep your enemies' clothes.

>>20752
Not a hat though, it's a plume, and his hair is in a ponytail. And yes, there is still the brightly colored clothes.
>>20751
For the record, I was gonna delete that post immediately after, but that password thing goes auto-blank and I couldn't.

>>20753
I'll have those washed for Taylor or Norfilly if either of them are interested in taking a piece of his getup.
